The point is to get away from questions of origin, to forget about
where a theory or a form of knowledge or politics come from
originally, and to define instead scenes where we can see things
play out, with the idea that the origin itself is a kind of scene :
this is how Jacques Ranciere defines his intellectual project. In
this long conversation with Laurent Jeanpierre and Dork Zabunyan,
Ranciere demonstrates the richness and fruitfulness of this
approach, never yielding to the temptation of linearity or
causality, bringing out scenes, instances, that together form an
intellectual project. The development of Ranciere s philosophical
work, from his formative years through the political and
methodological break with Louis Althusser and the lessons of May
68, is documented here, as are the confrontations with other
thinkers, the controversies and occasional misunderstandings. So
too is the unity of his work and the distinctive style of his
thinking, despite the frequent disconnect between politics and
aesthetics and the subterranean movement between categories and
works. Lastly one sees his view of our age, and of our age s many
different and competing realities. What we gain in the end is a
rich and multi-layered portrait of a life and a body of thought
dedicated to the exercise of philosophy and to the emergence of
possible new worlds.
